"* MONSTER MASH *"

Spoken : I was
working in the lab
late one night,
when my eyes beheld
an eerie sight,
for my monster from his slab
began to rise, and
suddenly,
to my surprise...
Sung: He did the mash,
      He did the monster mash.
      The monster mash,
      It was a graveyard smash.
      He did the mash;
      It caught on in a flash.
      He did the mash.
      He did the monster mash.
From my laboratory in
the castle east.
To the master bedroom
where the vampires feast.
The ghouls all came from
their humble abodes
To catch a jolt
from my electrodes.
      They did the mash,
      They did the monster mash.
      The monster mash.
      It was a graveyard smash.
      They did the mash;
      It caught on in a flash.
      They did the mash.
      They did the monster mash.
The zombies 
were having fun.

The party
had just begun.
The guests included ?Wolfman!,
Dracula, and his son.
      They did the mash,
      They did the monster mash.
      The monster mash.
      It was a graveyard smash.
      They did the mash;
      It caught on in a flash.
      They did the mash.
      They did the monster mash.
The scene was rockin'
all were digging the sounds,
Igor on his chains,
backed by baying hounds.
The coffin-bangers were 
about to arrive
with their vocal group:
"The Crypt-Kicker Five"!
      They played the mash,
      They played the monster mash.
      The monster mash.
      It was a graveyard smash.
      They played the mash;
      It caught on in a flash.
      They played the mash.
      They played the monster mash.
Out of his coffin,
Drac's !voice did ring;
seems he was troubled
by just one thing.
He opened the lid,
shook his fist, and
said, "Whatever happened to my
Transylvanian twist??"
      It's now the mash.
      It's now the monster mash.
      The monster mash.
      It was a graveyard smash.
      It's now the mash;
      It caught on in a flash.
      It's now the mash.
      It's now the monster mash.
Now everything's cool,
Drac's part of the band.
And my monster mash
is the hit of the land.
For you, the living,
this mash was meant too,
When you get to my door,
tell them Boris sent you.
      And you can mash,
      You can do the monster mash.
      The monster mash.
      It was a graveyard smash.
      And you can mash;
      It caught on in a flash.
      And you can mash.
      You can do the monster mash.
Mash good, easy...
Igor, you impetuous young boy.
Uh, uh, uh uh.
Uh, uh, uh uh.
Uh, uh, uh uh.
